Wriggle and Rhyme is a delightful weekly session designed especially for babies from birth to pre-walkers. It offers a nurturing environment where little ones can enjoy rhymes, finger plays, songs, and stories that promote early language development.
Older siblings are welcome to join the fun, provided they bring their own 'baby' to participate alongside. This makes it a wonderful opportunity for families to bond and enjoy creative play together.
The sessions are lively and interactive, encouraging sensory engagement and early communication skills in a warm community setting.
Each session runs for 30 minutes, starting at 11:00 AM and finishing at 11:30 AM every Friday. No bookings are required, making it easy for busy parents to drop in whenever it suits their schedule.
The program is part of the First 5 Forever initiative by the Queensland Government, coordinated by the State Library of Queensland and delivered in partnership with local government.
This activity is perfect for parents looking to support their baby's early development through fun and educational play.
The sessions take place at Gatton Library, located at 34 Lake Apex Drive, Gatton QLD 4343. The library is a welcoming community hub with accessible facilities and ample parking.
It is easily reachable by car and public transport, making it convenient for families in the Lockyer Valley region.
Parents can enjoy the comfortable library environment while their little ones engage in the activities.
